SYNOPSIS
The Advanced Computational Reseach
(ACR) program focuses on the research and
enabling technologies needed to advance the state of the art
in high-end computing and computational science, and bring
advanced computational capabilities to bear on fundamental science
and engineering problems. Current focus areas include software
systems and tools, visualization and data handling, and scalable
algorithms. ACR also supports work on multidisciplinary analysis
and design, heterogeneous computing, web-based meta-computing,
computational steering and remote collaboration on high performance
computing applications. An area of growing interest is algorithm
scalabilty addressing such issues as latency-tolerant algorithms,
and research into means to handle complex multi-level memory
hierarchies.
The current Program Director for ACR is Xiaodong Zhang.
His home institution is the College of William and Mary, where
he is a professor of computer science. His area of expertise
is high performance computing and systems, with emphasis on memory
systems and distributed computing. While at NSF, however, he
intends to support excellent research in all areas as described
above.
